    Hi.

    I wrote the script that install some updates to the computer. I tested it locally and want to run it remotely with Invoke-Command.

    I'm running it this way

    $scriptpath = "\\"+$computer+"\somepath\1installAIO.ps1"
	Invoke-Command -ComputerName $computer -Filepath $scriptpath

    Script is running well but when it reaches this point it hangs forever.

    Start-Process "C:\somepath\1 - NDP47-KB3186497-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe" -ArgumentList "/quiet", "/norestart" -Wait

    Process is visible in taskmgr, but it definetly need some interaction. I think that something is wrong with /quiet and -Wait, but i can't get why.

    The question is how to make this script work remotely as well as it works locally.

    No. Some things cannot be remotely installed.  Contact the vendor of the package for help.

    This is .Net 4.7. And i'm already on vendor's forum.

    Use WSUS to distribute Windows updates rather than trying to run an installer remotely.
